Chapter 853 - 953: Target—Dali Sect
Ye Tianfan felt helpless and had no choice but to head to the Dali Sect, as this was a task given by his master. Moreover, his master wouldn't easily assign him tasks!After tidying up his belongings, Ye Tianfan was ready to set off. In fact, Ye Tianfan didn't have much to pack; mainly, it was the herbs he had taken out of the Xuanhuang Tower. He roughly categorized these herbs before placing them back into the Xuanhuang Tower.
Earlier, when Ye Tianfan was collecting herbs at the Taiyi Peak, he didn't classify the herbs in time. It was mainly because there wasn't time to do so as he had to leave quickly after obtaining them and couldn't organize them there.
Ye Tianfan spent a day sorting these herbs into categories based on the five elements: metal, wood, water, fire, and earth. After completing this task, he bid farewell to Tian Chu Zhenren and left.
Before Ye Tianfan left, Tian Chu Zhenren handed him an envelope and instructed him to personally deliver it to Bang Dali. Even if others offered to help, it wasn't allowed, and he must personally see Bang Dali read the letter!
Though Ye Tianfan didn't quite understand why his master insisted on this, he nodded to show assurance that he would comply!
Then, Ye Tianfan flew directly north!
After flying for two days, Ye Tianfan saw a town below and quickly descended.
Ye Tianfan thought about how, according to his master Tian Chu Zhenren, the Dali Sect was quite far from the Taichu Sect. If he traveled at Tian Chu Zhenren's speed, it would take about four days to arrive. However, at Ye Tianfan's speed, it would take at least half a month, and that would be at full speed!
Thinking about the journey of half a month, Ye Tianfan realized it wasn't easy. Upon seeing a town, he decided to land and have a special meal. Otherwise, flying non-stop for half a month would be excruciatingly boring!
During this half-month journey, he couldn't even cultivate. If he encountered a bird or a demon beast mid-flight, he'd be doomed if he collided with them—it would be akin to being attacked during cultivation, a fatal distraction!
Pursuing moments of carelessness could result in broken meridians and death!
Although Ye Tianfan was not overly concerned about disturbances, given that the "Universe Technique" he practiced had built-in interference avoidance capabilities, it could not fend off direct attacks!
Upon landing in the town, Ye Tianfan saw "Demon Slaying Town" inscribed above, feeling surprised that a town dared to use such a name.
Moreover, despite its name, demon beasts hadn't come to create trouble, which surprised Ye Tianfan even more!
Nonetheless, Ye Tianfan didn't care much about the town's peculiar name because he was merely passing by. Thus, after paying the entrance fee, he headed straight to the location he inquired about earlier—the best tavern!
"Moon Viewing Tower!" Ye Tianfan saw the tavern's sign and thought: Such arrogance to claim it's a moon-viewing tower. Whether one can see the moon is another matter. With winter approaching, the mist in the sky thickens, and the dense evening fog even obscures the moon. If the fog were present during the day, one couldn't even see the sun clearly!
Therefore, Ye Tianfan felt that this tavern's name was somewhat exaggerated and perhaps fitting only in the summer. This thought crossed Ye Tianfan's mind!
Ye Tianfan planned to stay a night and see if the Moon Viewing Tower lived up to its name or was merely named without substance.
As Ye Tianfan was about to enter and have something to eat, he suddenly saw a crowd gathering not far away, seemingly drawn by some commotion.
Despite not being fond of crowds, Ye Tianfan didn't mind a free spectacle, so he headed toward the gathering!
"Stupid girl, you dare trick me? You must not know who I am!"
Ye Tianfan saw a young man, slightly pretentious, grabbing a young lady's clothes and shouting!
After yelling, Ye Tianfan watched as the young man fiercely pushed the young woman to the ground!
The young woman, now on the ground, begged the young man: "Master, please show mercy, spare me! I can serve you as a slave in the next life."
"Nonsense!" The pretentious young man cursed her fiercely: "Next life, next life, you only know how to say next life, but I want you in this life."
"Master, truly, I am not worthy of your noble status!" The young woman pleaded: "I beg you, Master, have mercy and spare me!"
"Nonsense, I purchased you, not for nothing! You belong to me in this life, and even if the king of heaven comes, I won't let you go!" The pretentious young master roared and kicked the young woman several times!
"Wise up and come back with me, and I might consider you didn't attempt to escape. But if I have to bring you back by force, you'll suffer a terrible fate!" The pretentious young master threatened!
Hearing this, the young woman seemed stunned, her face turning pale in shock and unable to speak!
Ye Tianfan observed without immediately intervening, as he hadn't fully understood the situation and couldn't make rash judgments.
Moreover, one shouldn't pity someone just because they appear disadvantaged. Gender conflicts aren't always just women being right, so Ye Tianfan didn't step forward, and the drama between the two continued!
"Oh, how pitiful! This girl looks so pitiful!"
A woman standing near Ye Tianfan exclaimed sympathetically.
"No one doubts it, this girl's appearance is indeed striking; she's just unfortunate!"
"Indeed, indeed, this Zhu Lao San is despicable!"
As the crowd gossiped, Ye Tianfan listened and thought about whether he ought to prepare to intervene. Since the bystanders all claimed that this pretentious young master, also identified as Zhu Lao San, was vile, indicating he was in the wrong!
"You know nothing, a bunch of mindless women only know how to gossip without understanding what actually happened!"
"Liu San! You dare insult me, are you trying to die?"
